Looks like a real bad problem, I'm glad I did not update yet. 

http://blog.flameeyes.eu/2010/08/18/compounded-issues-in-glibc-2-12 has 
some explanation on this. I wonder how this glibx version did make it into 
~arch.

Don't know. Maybe wait a little and see if another new glibc fixes this, 
or the packages having issues with the new glibc might get updated.
